Day 3 Monday 1 or Panic and Run Panic and Run
We woke up,, and can i say the beds at VWL were amazing and tried to figure out the best way to get to Poly for our breakfast ADR. Our original plan was to take he boat to CR and monorail it, but it was too foggy, buses werent running. So we started the hike to the bus stop. This is where L found out how much he liked pushing the stroller. He wanted to push it everywhere so we let him push it to the bus stop, but when it was time to stop he wailed. Until the first bus came up... he loves buses.
We waited about ten minutes for a bus and took that to MK. From there we went through security and over to the resort monorail. We had to wait for them to do their safety checks as this was the first monorail to go and we had to get on the second one It was still really foggy and i got a great picture of the GF with its roof sticking up over the fog/ Sorry i hate photobucket so i dont really upload pics.. plus im on a work computer.
I had to laugh because we were sharing the car with someone that was on the monorail before we got on, and they were riding to TTC. THey got to TTC and the father goes.. is that our resort (poly).... omg we could have just walked. "But," i told him "the monorail is so much more fun"
We got to the POLY and L pushed his stroller to Kona. We ended up being about ten minutes late for our ADR but they sat us right away.
KONA CAFE REVIEW: T got the french toast, he loved it. L got pancakes and bacon, he ate almost all of it, and i got Tonga Toast!... I love Tonga Toast. As always Kona was relaxing and service was great. The Tonga Toast is definitely alot better up here than it is down at capt cooks, and T loves the Kona Coffee.
After we were done we decided to walk to the TTC, which took a little bit bc L had to push the stroller the entire way and since the path was empty we let him. We got to the TTC and got on a monorail to Epcot. Security was kind of crazy,,, they had it organized and it would have worked smoothly but people would not listen to the officers. But we got though and made our way straight to our FP SpaceShip Earth. Finally, i managed to get the ride to take L's picture instead of mine... then the ride stopped. We got to listen to the announcement about staying in our ride vehicle over and over again. To the point T looked at me and said "What should we do, stay in our ride vehicle?! My reply "Panic and Run Panic and Run" in my best Lion Guard Zebra voice
(Lion Guard is a cartoon on Disney Jr, that we have watched every episode over and over bc .. well.. we have a 2 year old, and we get a kick out of the zebras that go "Panic and run panic and run" anytime something scares them)
The ride started back up and we went and saw our future. When we got done, it was time for a diapy change and it was T's turn. So i told him i would go do Mission Space while he changed L. I had only ridden this ride once before 3 years ago and wanted to try it again. Heres my take... the ride is way too short compares to all the "preride" prep. I love gary sinise, but they spend so long prepping you then you get in and the ride is over. On the way out o picked up L a small space shuttle. Which he called "Upplane" and would not let go of it unil he took a nap later. Then T went and Rode Test Track single rider line. L and i went and watched the Jamminators perform and he got a jr jamminator sticker at the end.
our next fastpass was for character spot. So we got over there and the fastpass line was out the door. Ummm, no way. So we decided to go to the Living seas. And there was a line here as well... i dont think i ever had to wait in the queue for this ride, but oh well. After the shell ride we walked around the aquarium and L pointed out all the fishies.
Then we decided to go to the pixar film festival. SO MUCH BETTER THAN CAPT EO. the stage still moves and vibrates. L sat through the whole show. It was "Get a horse", Luna" and "For the Birds"
After this we did a diapey change at the bathrooms in Imagination Pavilion then headed up to the DVC lounge. That was a nice break. We enjoyed drinks, L got a sticker, and they even came around with snacks. I hope they keep this member perk.
